15.2.1 Timer Counter

All TIMx instances have 16-bit counter blocks except for TIMG12 and TIMG13, which have 32-bit counter blocks. The timer counter register (TIMx.CTR) can count down, up-and-down, or up depending on the operation mode. It can also be read or written with software. Each count occurs with each rising edge of the TIMCLK signal or with both edges of external signals.

Enabling the TIMx Counter

The counter is clocked by the prescaler output TIMCLK. The counter enable bit TIMx.CTRCTL.EN can be enabled in two ways:

  • Set in software manually
  • After a load condition (LCOND) or zero condition (ZCOND) is met, and the counter value after enable (CVAE) is changed to the load value or zero value, respectively.
Note: The ability to write the counter register while TIMx is running is possible but should be avoided because the user write can collide with a load, zero, or advance event. Depending on the prescaler ratio, the application cannot predict the timing of the write, which can affect the correct timer period.
